Congratulations to Lady Gaga who just won her very first Golden Globe Award! Mother Monster took home the award for "Best Actress in a Limited Series" award for her role as The Countess on the latest season of American Horror Story.

"I feel like Cher in that John Patrick Shanley film Moonstruck right now," Gaga said as she accepted the trophy. "This is one of the greatest moments of my life. I have to thank Ryan Murphy, you're just a wonderful human being. You have believed in me so much and been such a good friend to me. Thank you to my wonderful cast, I love you guys so much, you're my family forever. I have to thank Matt Bomer, Denis O'Hare, Angela Basset, Cheyenne Jackson, Finn Witrock, Chloë Sevigny, Evan Peters. I could go through the entire cast because you're all so talent and because of you I was to able to shine, I guess. So thank you for sharing your talent with me, I wanted to be an actress before I wanted to be a singer, but music worked out first."

She continued: "To my family, my mother, my father, my sister Natali, I love you so much. I have to thank my team, you guys pick me up every single day.The things I put my body through and my mind through when I’m working, it makes me like a child. I can’t even do things on my own. You allow that, and you take care of me, and you help me to explore my creativity in ways that I never thought I could. Thank you Brad Falchuk. Thank you Brad Buecker, Michael Uppendahl, Michael Goi, and Loni Peristere, my amazing directors. Thank you. I’m truly speechless. I really am truly speechless. Thank you so much."

The season finale of American Horror Story: Hotel airs this Wednesday, January 13th.

Lady Gaga turned plenty of heads as she walked the red carpet at the 2016 Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night with her fiancé Taylor Kinney. Mother Monster, who is nominated for her acting debut on American Horror Story: Hotel, looked flawless in a classic black gown, custom made for her by Donatella Versace.

"I had a glass of wine, and a cigarette, and a prayer in the car," Gaga told NBC when asked if she was nervous. "But I'm feeling really great. I'm just happy to be here. I'm in the company of so many talented actors, especially my cast of American Horror Story. I'm so grateful to be here with Ryan Murphy, such a talented man."

Lady Gaga and seven-time Oscar nominee Diane Warren sat down with The Hollywood Reporter's Scott Feinberg for a chat about their latest song "Til It Happens to You," which is a favorite to receive an Academy Award nomination next week. Gaga also spoke about the music industry, her past work, the impact of "Born This Way," and so much more during a must-listen hour-long interview.

On hearing a Diane Warren song for the first time:
"I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing." That's how I learned about Diane Warren. I was so blown away by that song at at a really young age and it made me cry every time. That was the song. I mean, what a tremendous song and it was sung so well by Steven Tyler. It's one of those moments that changes your perspective about music forever.

On the impact of "Born This Way":
I watched throngs and throngs of the LGBT community at my shows come together before they were 18 years old and decide that they were going to change things. People don't understand it because they don't know the extent to which I witnessed those kids' lives changing. What that song did, if anything, is forced people and the radio to play the words "gay," "straight," "bi," "transgender," you know? That was the first time that word was ever on the radio ever in the history of America. And I just wanted it to be there, I didn't care how, or why. 

On Donald Trump:
Networks are not being held responsible for curating the news, curating how we see things, they're catering to ratings. It scares me because young people and older people in America who maybe haven't thought too long and hard about why Donald Trump is running, they look at this and go "Oh, I've been seeing him everywhere, so he must be important." But the truth is, the reason that so many politicians are on TV is because it makes money, not because it's good for America.

On the music business:
One of the scariest things about this business — and what's crazy — is that the bigger that you get, you start to realize that sometimes, when you shake people's hands, you're making other people money. You know? There's so much business going on around you, and people are in the business of you, and you don't even know. You become a product and then you have to sort of go, "Who's selling me today? Is it you?" And some people never figure it out and what happens is they are rotting in a hole of people that are just taking off the top.

Lady Gaga's latest single "Til It Happens to You" is this week's top dance track in the United States, according to Billboard. The song climbs 2-1 on Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart, which ranks songs based reports from a national sample of club DJs, becoming the first dance number one of 2016.

This is also Gaga's first number one on the chart since her 2013 hit single "Applause," and her fourteenth overall.

"Til It Happens to You" was written with Diane Warren for The Hunting Ground, a documentary exploring campus sexual assault, and released back in September 2015. The power ballad was later remixed by Tracy Young, Matt Consola and other DJs, becoming a hit at nightclubs across the United States.

Lady Gaga and Taylor Kinney go nude for the latest issue of V Magazine, which Gaga guest-edited herself, Yahoo! reports. On cover 14 out of 16, the couple pose wearing nothing but paint for a sexy selfie after "making love on a canvas for peace."

"Since we first met, Taylor’s been drawing and painting all over me," Gaga wrote in her editor's letter. "Years ago, when we were secretly living in San Diego and crashing on the floor of a beach shack, we never wore shoes. He told me he wanted to make love to me on a canvas."

Gaga continued: "I asked Taylor to collaborate with me on a project to raise money and awareness about mental illness, and he immediately brought my attention back to this idea.

"We made love on the canvas on a Sunday in Chicago. We made love amidst chaos. We talked about shootings. We made love amidst terrorism. And we talked about how people’s hearts are also suffering all over the world as they watch and witness a swell of violence. We made love amidst violence. During tumultuous times, we hope everyone in the world will see this and be reminded to love each other wildly, generously, totally, colorfully, without fear and with compassionate hearts. We made a galaxy of endless colors with only brief, black holes of emptiness that are then filled by each other."

All proceeds from the sale of the issue will benefit Lady Gaga's Born This Way Foundation, helping fund "cutting-edge, social-emotional intelligence research."

Lady Gaga collaborated with her friends, fashion photographers Inez and Vinoodh for a series of newly-released covers for the latest issue of V Magazine, which Gaga guest-edited herself.

"This issue of V is about all of these people coming together to express a passion for art and fashion, to really 'go there' to make a great statement and to change things," she said. "I feel like we all share an appetite for living a life of passion and creativity... it's like we all found our immortality through art and fashion... we share that deep spiritual place."

The season finale of Hotel airs next Wednesday.

Lady Gaga is the guest-editor of sixteen versions of V Magazine's new issue, and for version #10, she collaborated with the cast of American Horror Story: Hotel on an improvised photoshoot with Chadwick Tyler.

For the cover interview, Gaga sat down with none other than James Franco to speak about the show, the past, and, of course, the new album.

"I've been writing a lot for the past year," Gaga said. "[American Horror Story] has really affected my voice, I have to say. I'm using my listening from acting in my music more, which is crucial because it's music. Who knew I could listen even more? It's amazing to even talk about. There's a tremendous freedom and a recklessness, but there's also a sophistication in the show. There's a lot of liberation, but it's a very chic liberation. Here's what I will say: when I wasn't working on the show I was truly miserable because I had no safe house to get out any of my vices. Now I have a safe house for my vices so when I'm making music I just have a lot more clarity. I have a little less of an instinct to be reckless with my music now because I'm reckless in other places."

She continued: "So now I'm thinking more about what it is I want to say and what I want to leave on Earth. It's less an expression of all my pain. There will be some of my pain on the record for sure, but it will be more than that. My last album was riddled with a ton of pain. That whole record. It's almost like you couldn't even get to what it is. Now, the show gives me an outlet to put things somewhere, so when I get to the piano I'm in a deeper place already. I have something completely other to explore.

Taylor Kinney says he and fiancée Lady Gaga paint together! The actor appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden to promote his new movie The Forest on Monday night. During the interview, Corden asked Kinney if he was a keen painter, to which he responded by saying he "could turn him onto Bob Ross."

Bob Ross hosted a show on PBS called The Joy of Painting which ran from 1983 to 1994. Each show would feature Ross creating a landscape or seascape painting on canvas from scratch using an oil based technique within the 30 minute program. Ross was known for his signature "fro," as Kinney put it, calming voice and laid back demeanor.

Kinney also revealed that he and Gaga watch Bob Ross' show on DVDs together and have paint-offs.

"Me and my fiancée have a partition, we set up canvases, and then we'll go for maybe the same picture and then we'll start painting and do our whole thing," he said. "And then just talk s--t and make fun of each other when we see the finished result."

What do you think about Taylor and Gaga's paint-offs? Further proof that they're the cutest couple ever? We think so. Let us know in the comments!

"This is the church of fashion," Gaga said of the new issue. "If you don't have respect for what Daphne and Steven Klein and I are doing, you don't have a clue, really. Daphne reminds me that it's okay to be in pain all the time. She taught me to go for it. Always. F--k it. People just can't understand being in pain constantly for art. The way we handle emotional pain is by inflicting some sort of physical pain on ourselves for an art that we love."

Gaga and Taylor are spending their winter break at a famous ski resort in Aspen, Colorado.

Introduced by her mother Cynthia Germanotta, Lady Gaga accepted the honor as Woman of the Year at Billboard's Women in Music in New York City last week. The star-studded event aired on Friday night on Lifetime — watch the video, including Gaga's beautiful performance of "Til It Happens to You," or read her touching speech below!

"I don't think I've ever dreamed of anything more than being a performer. I don't really know why. I'm so sorry. I'm a very emotional person. I think that's what you are as an artist. You have a lot of strength, but you're sort of intrinsically very emotional.

"I never thought anything like this would have ever happened to me or my family. My grandma's here tonight, Angeline. My grandfather made shoes, and my grandma was by his side every day for 60 years. My father was an entrepreneur. My mother was a dancer who didn't make it and then decided to sell telephone lines. So in short, my family was willing to do anything to give my sister and I everything that we had. Music was the single thing that kept me going in my life, my music education, my discipline. It was a warm blanket on my darkest days. Something so powerful for me.

"I have so many people I'd like to thank today. All of the table, Kenny, Bobby, beautiful wife. Taylor. My grandma. My father. Tony. Marty. Jody Gerson, I'm so proud of you, that you're winning this evening. You deserve this so much. Jimmy Iovine. Vincent Herbert. My attorneys. Interscope Records. Universal.

"But what I really want to say is that it is really hard sometimes for women in music. It's like a fuckin' boys club that we just can't get into. Sorry, grandma. But yeah, I tried for so long. I tried for so long. I just really wanted to be taken seriously as a musician for my intelligence more than my body ever in this business. To be here today means that I'm recognized for my songwriting and for my legacy, which means a lot because you don't always feel like -- when you're working -- that people believe that you have a musical background, that you understand what you're doing because you're female. And that's why tonight is so important. Because women provide a wisdom to music that is very unique and special. It is a perspective that no other person can have because we bear life, and we go through things that no one goes through. And more importantly because it's right, because we're all equal.

"But thank you for this moment tonight so that my family can appreciate the hard work that I've put in, that's kept me away from them, my passion. And I hope that any young girl or boy that's watching this tonight knows that -- listen, this industry might never get better over time. There's all kinds of problems all over the world. We can't expect things to be perfect. But what you can do is have the heart. No matter what, you can have the heart. And it might be hard, and it might be ruthless, and it might be the ugliest thing you ever saw. But if you want it, you can do it. It's there. And that's all I want everyone to take away from tonight, and the most important thing for me being here was the one song that I got to sing that I would maybe in this moment get to give something back to the world for everything you've given to me and my family -- thank you, from the bottom of my heart. More than anything, I just never thought my family would have the kind of blessings that we have to take care of our future. So thank you.

"To my vocal teacher, Don Lawrence, who's been my mentor since I was a baby girl, always looked out for me. To anyone that's ever believed in me. And I'd like to say thank you also to everyone that didn't believe in me. Thank you. Because there was a lot of people. Probably more than believed, and you gave me a fire in my belly so strong I couldn't wait to prove you wrong, I'll tell you. 'Cause I might not be a lot of things, but I can write songs, and I can sing.

"Support your children in making music. If they have a creative instinct, don't ask them to deny it, because it will make them so sad and depressed. It's part of your life destiny if you're born with that gene. I am so grateful to my parents that they didn't deny me my right to express myself at a young age -- thank you. And to my sister Natalie who's here tonight who I'm so proud of -- who knew? She's the designer. She does fashion. I do music. It was a creative family. It's something different. Thank you for being here. Thank you for honoring me. I am an Italian-American girl from New York who was the first to go to college in their generation with my family, so thank you for everything and God bless. To the next Woman of the Year!"

Lady Gaga is up for another prestigious award! Gaga's latest single "Til It Happens to You" has been nominated for Best Song at the 21st annual Critics' Choice Awards. The award show will take place on January 17th in Los Angeles.

Co-written by Gaga and Diane Warren, the track is featured in the documentary The Hunting Ground, which focuses on sexual assault on US college campuses. A powerful PSA video, written and directed by Catherine Hardwicke, was released with the single back in September and since then has reached over 22 million views on YouTube.

Earlier this month, "Til It Happens to You" scored a nomination at the 20th Satellite Awards for Best Original Song and at the 58th Grammy Awards for Best Song Written for Visual Media.

Congratulations, Lady Gaga!

Lady Gaga was in tears as she accepted the "Woman of the Year" award at Billboard's Women in Music event on Friday.

Gaga was introduced by her mother, Cynthia Germanotta, who recalled that she learned to walk and play the piano at the same time. "Four years later, she was playing by ear," she said, adding that "at the age of six, she wrote her first song -- called Dollar Bills."

"It's really hard sometimes for women in music," It's like a f--king boys club we can't get into. Sorry grandma," Lady Gaga told the audience. "But I tried for so long. I just really wanted to be taken seriously as a musician: for my intelligence, more than my body, in this business. To be here today means I'm recognized for my legacy and my songwriting, which means a lot because you don't always feel when you're working that people believe that you have a musical background and that you understand what you're doing, because you're a female."

She continued: "Women provide a wisdom to music that is very unique and special. That is a perspective that no other person can have because we bear life and we go through things that no one goes through, and more importantly, because it's right and we're all equal."

Gaga ended her emotional speech with a message to those who didn't believe in her: "I couldn't wait to prove you wrong. Because I may not be a lot of things, but I can write songs, and I can sing."

The other women honored at the event were: Selena Gomez as Chart Topper, Kelsea Ballerini as Rising Star, Fifth Harmony as Group of the Year, Loretta Lynn as Legend, Alabama Shakes' Brittany Howard as Powerhouse, Missy Elliott as Innovator, Tori Kelly as Breakthrough Artist, Demi Lovato as Rulebreaker, and Lana Del Rey as Trailblazer.

Don't miss Billboard's Women in Music, including Gaga's performance of "Til It Happens to You," on December 18th on Lifetime.

Lady Gaga was joined by Diane Warren, as well as The Hunting Ground director Kirby Dick and producer Amy Ziering for a TimesTalk about the movie and the Grammy-nominated song "Til It Happens to You" with New York Times columnist Frank Bruni.

On the "Til It Happens to You" video:
It's powerful stuff. And, half the stuff I put into the world people don't even take the right way anyway. It's not that you don't want to put your arms around the universe, of course that's what I wanna do all the time. But what if I were to align myself with this project and somehow leave a stench of inauthenticity all around it where people would not focus on the message? I said, 'I don't want to get in the way.' I didn't want to be in the video, I wanted it to be about the song and the message.

On victim-blaming:
Don't you always find the naysayers that are going "Are those women really telling the truth?" When women come forward with any sort of sexual grievance, it's always "Oh, are you sure that happened?" And you know, in the society, so much pressure is put on women to be beautiful. How could you do that? How could you put so much pressure on women (and men!) to be beautiful, to be successful, and then, when they are raped, to say "What were you wearing?" or "How were you portraying yourself?" This is like, we can't win. 

On the importance of being a part of the movement:
Not to take anything away from our politicians who are looking out for our country... some of them. I really hope that anyone watching this today hears that the most important people to change the world is you. I'm not looking to the government to change my life, I'm not looking toward the next president, I'm not looking toward our next world leaders. I'm looking at everyone in this room. I mean, you are culture. So if you care, and if your friend is going to rape someone in your fraternity or sorority, or in your school, or in a work situation, or in an alleyway outside a restaurant, whatever it is that your job is, if you say something and if you are a part of that greater world change, that is more powerful than any single person that's in office.

Watch Gaga open up about her latest song, being sexually assaulted at a young age, and the importance of supporting rape survivors, below...
